Tested positive for herpes 1 igg & indeterminate for herpes 2 igg. on doc visit felt nodule. would herpes 2 cause that? felt eenlarged lymph nodes

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doubt it.: A positive herpes igg means that you were exposed to the virus at some point, which triggered the production of antibodies. You don't say where the nodule is, but herpes does not typically cause nodules, or enlarged nodes unless you are acutely infected.
